Drunk with Emotion

Drunk with Emotion

It’s unfortunate that we are at an impasse

All I can see, hear and feel is you

Engulfing my senses, my heart and my mind

I’m at a standstill as I reach for my wineglass

I’m drunk with emotions

I’m feeling hazy and my mind is clouded

By images of you and how my heart clearly feels

I’m lost and I’m still going through the motions

Trying to understand where you lost your devotion

I’m falling quickly as my mind takes hold

Of the impairment I’m inflicted with

And the way this feels inside

And my heartache screams loud and bold

 As my ears start ringing and I lose control

My words keep slurring

Because my mouth can’t relate what my heart feels

And my body can’t move because it doesn’t

Know how to move or deal

With the pain that comes when I think of us

My stomach is queasy and I’m nauseated

Wanting to vomit every word I can’t say

And every feeling I can’t express

And every move I can’t seem to calculate

I’m drunk with this feeling of guilt

As I look in the mirror

And question who I am

Because all I ever wanted to do

Was be a better woman for you

 It’s obvious that no matter

How intoxicated I am

I can see clearly what you can’t see

A better woman and a good wife to be

I’m measuring my love

As I exhale and breathe

It’s too much to share

 But I just can’t leave

I’m drunk with emotions

It’s unfortunate we’re here

The consequences are dire

And the effects are near

Arrested in mind

And penalized by time

I hold on to the thought

That I must have just been blind

Fear takes hold

As I think of the possibilities

Of loving again until the end

Not knowing just when

My feelings for you will ever go

Because in my heart my love will still flow

I’m drunk with emotions

And my sober mind starts to reel

As I look for a way

To wonder how not to feel

I lay my drink down

As I wallow in my pain

I try to get up but my strength I can’t gain

I’m still drunk with emotions

I can feel it so deep

No wonder I can’t stop

Or get any sleep
